SUMMARY:Prize Concert : Festival La Folle Journée de Nantes
DESCRIPTION:FCA Laureate Belle Ting at La Folle Journée de Nantes\nFrench Connection Academy (FCA) is pleased to present a special prize concert in collaboration with La Folle Journée de Nantes\, France’s largest classical music festival. \n \nBelle Ting\, violinist and FCA laureate\, was awarded the opportunity to perform a recital as part of her FCA 2025 prize. Initially scheduled to appear in duo with pianist and FCA co-founder Jean-Baptiste Doulcet\, Belle’s invitation expanded into a solo concerto appearance with orchestra – a rare opportunity within one of Europe’s most high-profile festival programmes. \nThis invitation marks the first time an FCA laureate performs a solo concerto within the official orchestral series of La Folle Journée de Nantes. It reflects both the high artistic standards of FCA participants and the academy’s commitment to fostering meaningful international collaborations across cultural and generational lines. \nThe concert explores Chinese musical heritage and features two emblematic works:\n– Xian Xinghai: The Yellow River Concerto – performed by pianist Sophia Liu– Zhanhao Gang / Chen Gang: Butterfly Lovers Violin Concerto – performed by Belle Ting \nBelle Ting is known for her deep musical sensitivity\, stylistic versatility\, and a refined soloist presence that has led to engagements with ensembles such as the Cleveland Orchestra and the National Symphony Orchestra of Taiwan. Her work has been broadcast on ORF\, Classic FM\, IDAGIO\, and medici.tv\, and she continues to explore repertoire with a strong interest in French impressionism and contemporary expression. \nThis prize concert stands as a celebration not only of Belle Ting’s artistic voice\, but of FCA’s broader mission: to connect musicians across borders and give them the tools and visibility to grow artistically and professionally. \nTo learn more about French Connection Academy and its international programmes:www.frenchconnectionacademy.com
